Evaluation of the Supervision Research in China: During the Period of 1992-2016

In order to understand the current situation of researches on supervision in China, based on a sample of representative literatures selected in the China National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI), this paper aims to summarize and evaluate the main achievements through eleven indexes and four aspects-the basic information of related literatures, the background information of authors, research themes and research fields. Investigations indicate that the study of supervision is characterized by the following features—the duration is long but the speed is slow, the perspectives are broad but imbalanced, the authors are diversified but generally lack great academic attainments, the methods are varied but have no academic standards to some extent, the contents are abundant but superficial. Although the practical summaries are adequate, theoretical explorations are scarce. Therefore, the development of researches on supervision in interior system should focus on strengthening basic researches, increasing discipline communications, obeying the academic norms, encouraging empirical researches, advocating intensive studies, cultivating young scholars, advancing theories and developing academic centers.
